I'm curious about how many friends the average anonymous user has.
If, 0 why do you think it is? (Don't want any?)
>a person you know well and regard with affection and trust
I know lots of people, but I don't regard any of them with any trust of affection.
Apparently, I'm quite likeable, and keep getting told I have lots of friends, but I don't feel anything.
2 but one lives ~5 hours away the other~1 hour but i dont drive so i dont see them much.
Like real friends, i.e. homies that got yo back until the end or Facebook 'friends'?
I got maybe 4 real friends, 10 acquaintances, and 69 Facebook friends.

Just like Edward oh my god you must be so misunderstood.
One. I have other people who consider me their friend, but I couldn't give two sh*ts about them.
I have had zero friends throughout all of high school and 2 years into college.
I don't go out of my way to make any, but people have tried to be my friend-- I just can't carry on a conversation. The stuff they talk about is so uninteresting, and I feel that any comments I have about the current topic are meaningless or 'stupid'.
So, most of the time I just end up nodding and grunting while someone tries to talk to me.
I'm kind of sad now.
0 friends, 41 facebook friends, 10 IRC friends.
I would like some local friends, but due to my employer I live in Lawton Oklahoma... land of ni**ers and christf**s.
0 Friends
I am a borderline personality, thus I must manipulate people into being my friends, and right now I don't want any friends.
Just like Edward oh my god you must be so misunderstood.
The f**k?
You're comparing me with a twinkly blood(c**k) sucker?
That's not very nice.
I literally have 1 friend in the city. Another 1 elsewhere. If I reconvened with my older friends, we'd probably be friends as well, but I really don't want anymore. I doubt I would get out any more than I do already.
Everyone I knew moved.
I probably talk to 3 good friends regularly, and we hang out, etc. Probably 10 not as close friends that I haven't spoken too in a few weeks. They're taste in women is usually a person I couldn't get along with.
(read: spics)
A few more that live near me that I only talk to while on the internet, for vidya games, etc.
but they only know girls with boyfriends and fugly ones I wouldn't be interested in.
I wish I got into a better school.
Honestly though, I think I forgot how to make friends.
I though my little close knit group of 15 or so friends would last for ever. Guess not.
No good buddies any more
A couple friends I guess
I think this is because I missed growing up properly somewhere along the line
Seriously how the f**k do you change someone from an acquaintance to someone you hang out and do stuff with?

Heh, my only source of interacting with other people is IRC as well.
I have 3 friends. Technically it could be 5, but one of them has grown away from me and the other is a little brother who is just there with my group. He may consider me a friend.

basically the same scenario for me.
Although, I just recently grew up. Well, a lot more than I was before. Had to take care of my family on my own even if just for a few weeks, first job starts next week. Less and less time playing video games, more and more time being busy. But I still don't remember how any of my good friends and I became good friends to the point of hanging out, etc.
When I was getting my security clearance renewed I had to call my parents to find people to use as references (can't use people you work with).
5 years of severe acne. 6 different creams and 3 different pills and it has only gotten worse into college. Nothing ends a conversation faster than me trying to add to it.

Have you tried soap and hot water several times a day?
Honestly, that works in a lot of cases like yours when medicine doesn't.
I had some "friends", mostly 1 friend from HS who brought me around his crowd
I never liked them and suffered every time i "visited" these "friends", eventually I cut off contact with the 1 guy cause he's the type of guy to wear a college football tshirt with a short sleeve collared button up over it, cargo shorts, and go to Hooters unironically.
Sh*t was a f**king awful joke but, in true web fashion, I'm a passive, timid, socially weak sop who will just go with the flow. It was like I was just doing it for the sake of having friends. SometimeS I had a good time, sometimes I realized the benifit of mingling and socializing on friendly terms (abusive household and usually depressed/hunkered down/emotionally withdrawan).
Anyway, it was indeed me who cut him off. You guys assume we don't have friends cause we can't and are unlikeable. True in some cases. But it's also true that the personality types who frequent this site are people who GENUINELY do not like/are irked by/incompatible with human company.
Around 500 friends on facebook.
approximately 100 of those are in my country
approximately 50 of those I see at least once a year for dinner/catching up
approximately 20 of those I see or go out with regularly
3 friends that I interact with daily, at school,
1 that I interact with daily, via the Internet,
and 2 more really good, old friends I only see on vacation.
I guess I could use more friends, especially on the Internet. From time to time, it's nice to just chat, but chatting with people I see IRL all the time gets annoying.
I have a sh*tload of acquaintances.But actual friends? Pretty much nil, unless you count that one girl who I hang out with once every month or so or these three people who I play football with once in a blue moon.
I don't get out much.
0 friends, dunno why. People just dont seem to take a liking to me. I am incredibly awkward, you'd think I could at least make friends with other awkward fellows. I've just gotten used to not having any friends and dont really see myself making any in the near future.
Stop it anonymous, stop being me!

Zero friends here. I did have two close friends I grew up with. They're both in prison now for murder. I really don't say much, and being a guy, no one cares what I do. I get the feeling that at my age of 23 guys would rather I didn't talk to them. They already have friends, jobs, wives, or long-term girlfriends to deal with. Girls would rather I didn't interact with them basically because I'm ugly with no future.
I'm a senior in college now and basically given up on life. I'm practically an inch away from becoming a homicidal murder. I got a serious traffic ticket last year and hit rock bottom till the court date. Long hair, never shaved, never left the house, and bought a gun to end it all before the court date. Sadly the thing that saved me was WoW. Picked it up, joined a guild, and started talking to people on vent. I guess the social interaction gave me a reason to keep going. Shame I quit playing it. I was a lot happier trapped in my fantasy world.
F**k it why am I even typing this sh*t when everyone on this board will just tell me to man up or "cry a river fa**ot."
0 friends. I don't know how to make friends. Honestly, I really don't. :(

All 500 are people I would happily have a beer with.
I'd say 5-6 really close friends and maybe an extended circle of friends that is 30-35

nah, I feel you. I had a few friends in high school, but mostly stuck to myself when I was home. SO even my young teenaged self was gearing for a life of isolation.
Anyway during all those highschool years and on into today, internet gaming has been one of my primary sources of social interaction. And it really does remind me how important it is, and how conversation and back and forth and just having company is really f**king important. As you said, it "saved" you. ISnt' that f**king sad? But really, it's just something to look forward to that you need, and online gaming and quasi-companionship that it affords kind of gives that. I joined clans for half-life mods like Day of Defeat and Natural-Selection, and I still know some of the guys I played with back in those days.
anyway, I'm turning 25 next month and am virgin, friendless, empty, etc. I don't have a gun yet, but have come close to buying one. I still plan to off myself. I don't know. Just saying, i'm with you.

real friends that I want to hang out with and can talk to about anything?
five people
I have one good friend I have known for a long time, but we're losing contact a bit. I had a few good friends when I was younger (at 15, loser types, but nice friends at that time) and had two friends in school when I was 18 or so which I occasionally met.
The problem is that I am not someone who is very outgoing (typical anonymous) and I don't really "take the initiative" and call my friends if I'm bored or ask how they do. I always let them ask me if we want to do something. Not very smart I guess.
I have a few online acquaintances, but I don't really consider them friends although they know much about me.

dude, how do you manage seeing 20 people regulary?
Tell me about your childhood friends who you don't like anymore because you now realize how f**king stupid he/she is.
Thanks.

Everyone is at college, but I don't if I'll reconnect over summer

I had this childhood friend, but nowadays I don't like him because I realized that I he was f**king stupid.
eh according to facebook I have 441 friends but if I were to trim that down to people I hang out with/talk to on a regular basis it would become maybe 30-40 people.

Friend of mine got superheavy into drugs, duis, and sh*t. Probably wouldn't have if I still lived in his neighborhood and hung out with him.
I have 2 friends who I consider close then a group of like 15 or so who I play football with and hung out in 6th form with and sometimes go for drinks with. I'm at uni now and have no friends at uni so I just sit on my computer all the time but when Im back at home I hang round with the friends I have from home. It seems so hard to make friends, I mean I can have conversations with people but I just can't ever connect with anyone new for some reason. =[

I didn't really associate with stupid people, but I didn't have friends either. Meh.

around 6 of them at uni daily, another 6 are friends of mine and my roommates with whom we meet regularly for dinner, the rest are spread into a couple of different groups I party with on weekends. I met most of these during the year I spent in dorms.
0. The last 3 friends I had, they just made fun of me every day on car rides (where i would eventually became the third wheel).
Feels good not to be ridiculed enough by humans man

I had a few very good friends (I prefer a small cirlce of close friends), but since I moved I barely have any contact with em anymore.
Studying at a university now, second semester already and I didnt go out once. There are a few ppl I get along with well, but thats it.
Before High school let out I had 3 great friends, 5 good friends and a few acquaintances mixed in as well as 2 really great xbox live bros I've known since 2003 (talk to every day)... Now I have 0 great friends, 1 good I rarely talk to, 0 acquaintances and still 2 great xbox live bros I talk to less now...
It's not like people dropped me directly after High school, two of my great friends called... I just... Never picked up ; ;
Effectively zero friends. I have a good friend whom I meet occasionally, but not too often since he goes to uni. I rarely leave the house too, but I hope things will become better once, or if, I start to study

3 friends that i hang out with every week.
..
That's all-!
2 I can rely on that I see often. 3 semi-friends. 2 online friends that Ive known over 2 years. Im fine with setup but still 0 girlfriends, now or ever.
six or seven..

I did go out first night at uni with my flatmates but I heard them all laughing at me so I just said f**k it and avoided them the whole year, I even only go in the kitchen when I know it's going to be empty
>but I hope things will become better once, or if, I start to study
I am this guy . I hope you have more luck
Yeah, I'm afraid it will be similar for me, because I'm not very outgoing. I will try to force myself a bit, though. Sometimes it gets better once you have taken the first step
I have a bunch of IRL friends through interests or social groups, but they're all easily twice my age for some reason. Online have a few more appropriate friends.

You really shoud. I'm sitting here alone in my little room at 3am like every saturday or friday and I hate it.
I dont think its doing me any good, I dont feel too happy at least (not at all actually) and you have too much time to think.

Right now, I have 0 friends I talk to regularly, but that's mostly on me. I got depressed, stopped going out, cut off contact with most of my friends when they went to college
but we're all still all on good terms, and if they call me to hang out when they're in town, I'm down.
I'm not close to them, but I know they're true bros because they still want to hang out with me despite my antisocial bitch ass behavior
3 good friends that used to be great friends, 6-7 good acquaintances that used to be good friends
>threads about girls
<=advice
was it too hard to read the second sentence?
I've got 4 best friends, 6-8 close friends, of whom I'd trust with my life. I have about 14 acquaintances, maybe more, along with my coworkers I hang out with, which adds about 6. And about 300 FB friends...I talk to maybe 150 of them off and on. Sometimes we hang out. Whatever.
But that doesn't mean I'm not miserable sometimes.
0. Maybe 1-2 if WoW counts, but I've barely talked to either of those guys in months. I usually only leave the house during the day once every 2 weeks, about once a week I'll go to a convenience store at about 1-3am and 1-2 times a month I'll go to a movie with my dad.
I think about suicide every day.
i don't know if i can count my friends. i'd say i have 15-20 people who i consider close friends, whereas i have 5 or so people who i'd consider my best friends.
0, cuz I have no idea how to initiate conversation/probably too ugly for people to initiate conversation with me.
I only ever had 2 friends.
One is a girl, she now has a boyfriend and he's so jealous he wont let her see me or speak to me, she speaks to me everynight in secret but we can never meet up (.__.)
One is a guy I met from college, he recently found out I was gay and is ignoring me. Other than that I live alone and play WoW, even people on web and WoW hate me.
i had pretty much one friend in high school. and i didn't make friends with her. we met through our parents when we were little. so clearly, i failed at friends and cried in my room every day.
but in college, i have a best friend and 10 good friends i hang out with very often. i also have maybe 30 people i kind of know. even at a small school. i love this place.
I have a girlfriend of 3 years. I've been shy from birth. I have 180 facebook friends but only about 10 that I can really relate to/trust.
I was just about to start a thread asking if its possible to get a chick if you have no friends. Can you?
All 500 are people I would happily have a beer with.
jesus christ. they actually mean something to you.
Besides not really enjoying people's company, I also think its frivolous to hang out with one particular person. There is Billions of people on this Earth. Why waste your time hanging out with one person. Its depressing.
I have one friend that I consider close. There are several peripheral people in my life, like I'm part of a club with some people that I see once or twice a month.
The only friend outside of organized activity that I really hang out with though I'm also in love with/was in love with, I don't know anymore. Hanging around him is like gettin' high then the comedown is terrible. So I avoid calling him. I get paranoid and delete friends from FB all the time, I've gone from 85ish down to 29. I think life will get better when I go to college. I'm not anti social, I'm just not in a place where it's easy to be social right now.
I have a good stack of friends.
